How do I know which mobility scooter is right for me?

Mobility scooters, sometimes called electric scooters or power scooters, range from small and portable to large and heavy duty. It's important to know where you'll be riding your scooter most often and whether it will be driven indoors or out. We've broken it down for you to make your shopping as easy and enjoyable as possible.

The general rule of thumb is that 3 wheel scooters have tighter turning radiuses and maneuver better in narrow spaces and sharp turns, whereas 4 wheel scooters provide more stability and evenly distributed weight. For foldable scooters and travel scooters, both can generally be used indoors and out, although 4 wheel scooters provide more stability than 3 wheel models when used outdoors. If you use a walking aid, such as a cane or a walker, 4 wheel scooters are recommended due to superior stability.

Read on to find out which type of mobility scooter is right for you!

FOLDING SCOOTERS

* lightweight * portable * compact *

Folding Scooters are ideal for people who can get around okay but have trouble walking long distances. These compact scooters simply fold when not in use, and some have a remote that do the folding for you. Some folding scooters disassemble into smaller, more lightweight pieces for easier transport. Folding scooters travel well and many are FAA approved for safe air travel.

TRAVEL SCOOTERS

* lightweight * portable * compact *

Travel scooters are perfect for people who have trouble walking long distances and need something to help them get around either when traveling or on a regular basis for daily errands and shopping. Travel scooters disassemble into smaller, more lightweight pieces that fit easily into the trunks of most cars. The universal accessory hitch on the back of the seat allows for scooter accessories, like spacious rear baskets, cane holders, and oxygen tank holders.

MID SIZE SCOOTERS

* Durable * Comfortable * Dependable *

Ideal for full time use, mid size scooters offer extra comfort features, longer lasting batteries, and more speed. Mid size mobility scooters are perfect for people who need help getting around on a regular basis and are looking for a full-time scooter. Both 3 wheel models and 4 wheel models are available.

FULL SIZE SCOOTERS

* Heavy Duty * High Performance * Feature Rich *

Full size scooters offer more of everything - more speed, more bells and whistles, more comfort and performance features. Perfect for full time outdoor use, full size mobility scooters can be used to get you from home to the grocery store and back.

RECREATIONAL SCOOTERS

* Fast * Fun * Stylish *

Since recreational scooters are made to be driven for sheer pleasure, they offer faster top speeds and longer driving ranges than other types of scooters. Recreational scooters are perfect for people who want a more fun way to get the mail, “walk” the dog, or cruise around town.

PERFORMANCE SCOOTERS

* Powerful * Heavy Duty * Luxurious *

Performance scooters are ideal for people who want the most powerful, highest-performance recreational scooter. These fun-to-drive scooters are the fastest scooters on the market with the longest driving ranges. Upgrades like state-of-the-art MP3/stereo systems come standard on most performance scooters.
